Patients with certain chronic diseases such as diabetes require medical treatment according to a set time-related treatment plan. Such a treatment plan must be adapted accordingly in the case of long-haul journeys to countries with a time difference. A method for this has the steps of recording an regular treatment plan for administering the medicine, recording the point of departure and destination as well as the time of travel of the long-haul journey, determining the time zone difference between the point of departure and the destination and producing an adapted travel treatment plan based on the regular treatment plan depending on the time zone difference and the time of travel. The invention enables a patient to achieve a structured adaptation of his individual treatment plan to the time difference in the destination country of the journey in a convenient manner. |
